Sandra, a 28-year-old woman from Hungary, claims to have shunned romantic relationships with other humans to be with a toy plane that she has fallen madly in love with.
Sandra has had a thing for airplanes for as long as she can remember, and that fascination stayed with her all through her teenage years, and as an adult, when she managed to get a job in the aviation industry so she could be surrounded by planes every day. But it wasn’t until she met “Luffancs,” a plastic plane model, that she realized she could become romantically involved with a plane. In January of this year, after breaking up with her last human boyfriend, Sandra bought the toy plane for around 600 euros ($660), and allegedly became madly in love with it.

“I don’t know why I love him, I just love him,” the 28-year-old woman from Budapest said. “He’s beautiful and my soulmate. He is the first thing I see in the mornings and the last thing when I go to sleep. I wouldn’t have it any other way. I get to do everything with him.”
Even though she now works around airplanes every day, Sandra says that she wouldn’t dream of cheating on Luffancs with another aircraft. She does sometimes touch or blow kisses to other airplanes, but nothing more than that.
“I have something special and I am not prepared to ruin it,” Sandra said. “My big love is LX-UCV at the airport but the work is work, I just do everything at home. The most I do with other planes at work is just touch and blow a kiss.”
The woman claims that her previous human partners have never had an issue with her love of planes, but then again, she has never actually been in love with a plane before. Being with Luffancs is apparently better than any human relationship she’s ever had, and she doesn’t know if she’ll ever date a human being again.
“I’m not too sure if I will go back to a human relationship. Planes are more reliable as partners. I know I can always speak to him,” Sandra said. “I have never felt like this with a partner before. For the first time in my life I am in love.”
